<p><span class="header2">Abstract:</span><br>
Web Services is a major push for J2EE 1.4. SOAP/WSDL
web services give you a standards compliant way to make your
applications interoperable with other applications over the Internet. 
After introducing web services and Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), 
this talk covers the following standards:

- JAX-RPC
- SAAJ
- JAXP

Apache Axis, an open source implementation of JAX-RPC,
is also discussed.

<p>
Join us for a discussion entitled, "Web Services & J2EE 1.4"
